Testimonials

“We were delighted when our daughter was given a clean bill of health at six days old and we were told she wouldn't need any further checks from the community midwife. However, we still felt that we had a number of questions and would value spending time with somebody who could provide us with help and support on a range of issues from breastfeeding to skincare. Esther's advice was invaluable, she spent time with us talking about different positions for breastfeeding (now that I know how to feed lying down, those middle of the night feeds are so much easier!)... Esther clearly has a vast amount of knowledge and experience looking after newborn babies and her level of professionalism was impressive. I have already recommended her services to the other mum's in my NCT group and would have no hesitatation encouraging other new mums to arrange a visit with Esther in those early days of being a neurotic new parent!!!”

“Esther made our transition into parenthood so easy. The advice and support that we received helped us to relax and to enjoy the first few weeks of our baby daughter's life. All of our concerns and worries were put to rest by Esther in the nicest possible way and we always felt that we could ask her anything at any time. Esther always felt like a member of our family. We will always remeber Esther as being a very important addition to our lives”

“Thank you for your support and valuable advice during the early weeks. I'm not sure we would be in such good form if you hadn't been here to help us... You do know that we will be pestering you when we have number two whether you like it or not!”

“Esther was extremely helpful- she responded immediately to our call, even doing a home visit on a Sunday evening, but most of all she really listened before giving some very practical advice.”

“Esther came to give me a pre-birth discussion. She told me a lot of things I didn't know and nobody else told me, not even in ante-natal classes. She phoned me up afterwards to see how we were doing, it was a great relief to know there was somebody I could chat to about worries and concern”

“Having Esther there to support me throughout my pregnancy and following the birth of my daughter was invaluable. Esther was always happy to discuss any queries/fears I had and help me make the best choices for me and the baby. I looked forward to her visits and would recommend her highly especially as her assistance helped me and baby get off to a great start with breast feeding.”

“I can't thank you enough for being so incredibly helpful in the first few weeks with Casper. If it wasn't for you, I don't think the breastfeeding would have ever happened for me, that was huge, thank you so much! You are so warm and caring, have the most personable approach and were incredibly sweet with Casper. Actually, it felt more like a friend coming around than someone I found over the internet! Your calm, reassuring and lovely manner was incredibly helpful - it meant the world that I was able to call you once at 2am with a question! I knew from the moment I met you that I could trust you 100% with Caspar and myself.”

“After we left the hospital with Ella when she was born breast feeding soon became a problem. I tried ring different help lines and although they were helpful were not able to send anyone to visit me and this is what I really needed. I called Esther to see if she could help me and she was able to visit that evening. I was nervous about her coming but she made me feel relaxed and comfortable from the start. Esther gave me good practical advice and really boosted my confidence. From that day feeding Ella become a lot easier and I have Esther to thank for that.”

“Esther was extremely supportive and very thorough to make sure that my baby and I were doing well.  She was very friendly and created a warm and relaxing atmosphere when she visited me at home, giving me the time I needed to talk.  I felt very comfortable talking about any concerns I had.  She was always really good at giving me information that I needed to know about motherhood, breastfeeding, and my health and answering questions I had about my baby’s health.  I would definitely recommend Esther!”
